I have read several opinions about routing configuration in Symfony. I stayed
with annotation based routing as it was convinient for me to see the URL right
above the controller action. This was because by just checking the URL, I
remembered the controlling code, as they always were fresh ones. Well, until
today.

I have recently learned about git rm --cached. It’s a very good tool, as it
removes a file from tracking, without removing your local copy of it. However,
be warned that if you use git pull in another working copy, the file will be
removed from there! If you accidentally put the configuration of a production
project, and remove it on your dev machine, it can cause a lot of trouble ;)

I faced a problem in my GLib self-teaching
project, wMUD today. I wanted to
register a signal for a GObject, whose handler should accept two enum
parameters for which I had to register a new GEnum type in the GObject type
system. However, the documentation on this
feature
(thanks for pointing out goes to hashem on #gnome-hackers) is not… uhm…
obvious. Making the long story short, I have checked with the GIO sources for
an example, and using that, I have created this small, working chunk:

I have a development server, on which I have several Symfony 2.x projects under
the same hostname in different directories. Now I’m facing a funny problem
which is caused by that the cookies Symfony places for each of my projects have
the same name.

Gergely Polonkai is a systems engineer of a telco company, and
also a freelancer self- and software developer.

He is learning about different IT subjects since the late
1990s. These include web development, application building,
systems engineering, IT security and many others. He also dug his
nose deeply into free software, dealing with different types of
Linux and its applications,
while also writing and contributing to some open source projects.

On this site he is writing posts about different stuff he faces
during work (oh my, yet another IT solutions blog), hoping they
can help others with their job, or just to get along with their
brand new netbook that shipped with Linux.
